not the most photogenic work but extremely glad to be done with it. I blew in insulation and closed up the ceiling. without any heating its already make a major difference. when its cold I had about a 20 degree difference. The lights and my stereo create a little heat but not much. When they...

if only it did something for the mosquito's...

Oh how time ticks by... This project has been a labor of love for sure. Not that I'm comparing it to the Sistine Chapel but I have more appreciation for Michelangelo after finishing this one. It took many months but I really like the way it turned out. My requirements were be unique...

I had the same type of behavior and I finally figured out it was an essential oil diffuser running upstairs. I was able to turn it on and sure enough neither of the garage doors would respond to the remotes. Turn it off and everything works fine. The small pump must have been producing a...

Probably will never be done but at least I can work on my own time. Thanks I’m still putting the gym together but I really like REP. Some new some market place. It’s going to get some dust for awhile I have to have rotator cuff surgery in a couple weeks.

Well it seems like forever but I've been using the space more than working on it but I finally had the time and budget to work on insulation. A lot of ladder work for one person but over the new year break I got all the walls done except for one 13" x 23" section. At least I don't have a bunch...

Yes. seems like it took me a lot longer to get the doors squared. They aren't perfect but I think they'll be ok. Getting that glass panel up the latter was pretty sketchy and then hoping the wind didn't blow before I could get the temp screw in. If I'm to believe the youtube's I've seen...

Did you paint yours? If so any issues?

Thanks. That started out as a lean-to and then I decided to just continue the roof line. Really didn't add a lot more to the cost.

Well it’s been a minute since my last update but finally had time to work on the doors. Not a lot of fun doing it by myself but we find a way…. Looks like I’m going to paint them as they don’t have the contrast I was looking for. Can’t tell in the picture but they are off.

let there be light... Just getting the min's for outside to pass inspection and testing out two ufo's inside to make sure I like them before I buy more.

Thanks Chris. No I'm only doing the minimum to get past final inspection and then I'll pull the scrape osb and finish pulling the rest of my circuits. Everything inspected must be tamper proof and backed by gfci. Any wire under 8' must be protected.

Its been a few weeks since I've had a chance for any updates. I passed the electric rough-in yesterday after making a few changes for the inspector so I can now ditch the extension cords from the garage which is big. The osb is temporary to get past inspections then I'll figure out what I want...

I was able to work on the electrical this weekend. During excavation I had dropped in a 2” and 2 1” conduits so I just had to find where it stopped and brought the 2” in to the main disconnect. The 1” go into the crawl space for low voltage and hopefully pex…. I’m sure the inspector is not...

not a lot happening this weekend but I did get the sub panel mounted at least. I have some grounding rods that I have no idea how they are going to get in with all this rock. I guess I'll see how that goes tomorrow... Lowes didn't have any 2-2-2-4 so that will have to wait.
